Description
Crispy Bacon Twists with Garlic Butter: A Tasty Delight
Ingredients
Scale
- 8 slices of thick-cut bacon
- 4 tablespoons melted butter
- 2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
Instructions
- Begin by setting your oven to 400°F (200°C) and prepare a baking tray with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the melted butter with the chopped garlic, oregano, black pepper, and sea salt, stirring until everything is evenly blended.
- Take each bacon slice and carefully twist it into a spiral, creating a fun shape.
- Arrange the twisted bacon pieces on the lined baking tray, making sure to leave some space between them for even cooking.
- Using a brush, apply a generous layer of the garlic-herb butter mixture over each bacon spiral.
- Bake the bacon in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes, or until they achieve a crispy, golden texture.
- Once done, take them out of the oven and allow them to cool slightly before enjoying.
Notes
- For an extra zing, add a dash of cayenne pepper to the butter mix before brushing it on the bacon.
- Experiment with other herbs like basil or dill in the butter for a different flavor profile.
